Default Crooked handlebars. What do you do?

So, any particular tips?


Geometry. Take a length of string and tie it symmetrically to both
ends of the handle bars. Find the midpoint of the string. Drop the
marked midpoint onto the front tire and center the handlebars. It
helps to lock the front brakes. Besides accuracy, this has the
advantage of somewhat holding the handlebars in place until you're
done tightening the nut. Patent pending.
